American McGee has taken to Facebook to poll fans about their interest in supporting a Kickstarter for Alice 3, a new installment in Spicy Horse's take on Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. This would not simply involve funding the game, but to also securing the rights to do create it. Here's word:

Alice Fans,
Questions for you:
1) If we could get the rights from EA, would you play "Alice 3?"
2) If you'd play "Alice 3," would you back it on Kickstarter?
3) If you said "yes" to those two things, make some noise - I'm trying to gauge interest in case I happen to discuss this with EA during GDC in 2 weeks. The more interest there is, the more seriously they'll take the conversation.

Alice was fantastic; the art style was brilliant and still looks pretty good today on its Quake 3 graphics engine. What worries me about a new one is that recently putting "American McGee" in the credits is more of a marketing gimmick than affirmation that a developer whose name is synonomous with quality worked on it.

I'll take a wait and see approach.
